לֹא־תָלִ֨ין נִבְלָת֜וֹ עַל־הָעֵ֗ץ כִּֽי־קָב֤וֹר תִּקְבְּרֶ֙נּוּ֙ בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֔וּא כִּֽי־קִלְלַ֥ת אֱלֹהִ֖ים תָּל֑וּי וְלֹ֤א תְטַמֵּא֙ אֶת־אַדְמָ֣תְךָ֔ אֲשֶׁר֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ נֹתֵ֥ן לְךָ֖ נַחֲלָֽה׃ (ס)
Janganlah mayatnya dibiarkan tergantung pada kayu itu semalaman, tetapi engkau harus menguburkannya pada hari itu juga, sebab orang yang digantung itu merupakan penghinaan terhadap Allah; dan janganlah engkau menajiskan tanahmu yang diberikan Yang Mahakekal, Allahmu, kepadamu sebagai milik pusaka.
Mishneh Torah, Mourning
The following rules apply when a person moves the coffin of a person from one place to another. If the corpse's backbone is intact, we stand in a line for him, recite the mourning blessing and the words of comfort for mourners. We eulogize him even if his bones were moved after twelve months after his death. If its backbone is not intact, we do not eulogize him. We do not stand in a line for him, nor do we recite the mourning blessing and the words of comfort for mourners.

Not to destroy aught of the Sanctuary, of synagogues, or of houses of study, nor erase the holy names (of God); nor may sacred scriptures be destroyed, as it is said, “Ye shall utterly destroy (all the places wherein the nations…. served their gods) …. and burn their groves…. ye shall not do so unto the Lord your God” (Deut. 12:2-4).
Mishneh Torah, Negative Mitzvot
